Great thread on graphics! I do have an additional question on the striped graphics. Can you order dual colors or is one limited to one color?

I asked the same question. The answer Sarah gave was:" the stripes have to be the same color, but you can pick a different color for the rest, which will give a nice contrast as well."

Marry,
Thanks for your reply. I would have really liked dark red and gray. Oh well, I suppose I should worry about first things first...like getting one ordered on April 1st!

The lower stripe should be relatively easy for a shop to re-make into your choice.
Or go "no stripe option" and have it custom'd at your local favourite shop.

Here's a photo of Unser Ei (Our Egg). We let ETI choose the graphic font. Our color is Battleship Grey, to match our truck.

Love it when these old threads resurface.
My trailer name location and font remain the same for the 21. Location, everywhere; font, verbal, "the trailer".

It frustrates me to see so many others using our chosen name for "The Trailer".

Had a phone camping discussion with an old friend yesterday, who just bought a big (redundant adjective) Forest River RV.
After the call, I realized we were saying "(your/my) trailer" and "(my/your) Escape".

How are the decals holding up? letteringonthecheap sounds fantastic, but possibly you get what you pay for... We want to add some graphics, and our original gray graphics from 2014 are holding up beautifully.

I didn't add letters, but a vinyl print I had made from one of my photos. It includes the link to my webpage:

For instance, Ten Forward. Notice how different it looks and how the font gives meaning to these words

We had a spare tire cover made with our name on it: The Cha-tow.
We may have been watching “Escape to the Chateau” at the time.
